Noxious thoughts feed a putrefying mind
A sense of entitlement envelopes a bigoted bubble
Relationships are mere objects of opportunism
Contempt ingrained in a moribund soul!
Indulged in an inflated self-image with no regard for another
Slyly playing the victim through crocodile tears
Sugar-coating devious words and
Imposing manipulative views on others
Soaked forever in sycophancy and facade
This vicious cocoon shall smother you some day
What makes an Acrostic poem interesting? Well, look closely at this poem and you will note how the first letter in each line spells out the hard-hitting theme of narcissism. The acrostic is a fun poetry form that could simply deliver a message, name or phrase in a ‘subtly straightforward’ manner!
The words you use makes me feel I don’t know English.. I learn a lot from your posts!!
Thanks a ton, Mad! There’s so much I have learnt myself. It is, in fact, an ongoing process . . .
Some powerful lines packed into a poem!
Thanks, Semeen! Glad you liked the poem. <3
Glad you said that! More often than not, we fail to recognize these lesser humans.
Amazing 👌👌
Thank you Lida!
The irony is we often self-reflect to understand what we are doing wrong ignoring the fact that the bad could be other side. Narcissism is enveloped in so much sugar that we self-doubt than doubting the other side.
True! And the question to be asked is also whether we are being narcissistic in any way?!
